About Pride

Pride is joy. Pride is protest. Pride is yours.

Pride begins June 1st and features programs — both small and large — in every corner of Denver. New events ensure all identities and intersections are welcome and represented. The final weekend is a celebration with all the classics: 5K, parade, and free festival.

Your Participation Your Impact

For 50 years, The Center on Colfax has provided safe, essential, and affirming resources and spaces for Colorado’s LGBTQ+ community — work that is powered in large part by Denver Pride, one of our most visible and impactful community celebrations.
Today, we face a growing number of challenges, from escalating hateful rhetoric nationwide to shifting policies and a shrinking number of safe spaces that are driving many in our community to seek refuge in Colorado.

Your participation in Denver Pride directly fuels The Center’s year-round programs and services, ensuring we remain a lifeline, a beacon, and a gathering place for our growing community.
